Yes the whites look very good too. The whole picy has good contrast without being overdone. I think B&W picys mostly need good deep blacks & tones through to white but it's the blacks that can make a B&W picy. Compare this picy to my Aussie Tucker B&W I didn't get any rich blacks like you have here & for me B&W picys always look best towards the darker look which seems to give them more mood/feel. This picy looks just right on my monitor. Itsa shame the comments slacken off in the last stages as I think some of the better picys get posted late & you can wonder if they don't like the picy as an earlier picy got lots of comments.
Thanks Rod and Debi (and for being a girl) -
Rod, you mentioned the blacks but are the whites bright enough? I'm always so conscious not to show any overexposed parts and I can't decide if this is too dark. I'd love anybody else's opionion on this too.

I thought we had a new challenger from Holland when I first saw this. This looks so busy & a great candidate for B&W. Excellent shot Penny the blacks look very good so do the other tones. If the other girls don't like this then I don't know girls:-)
